Born in Sarasota, I have been an artist all of my life, gaining formal instruction only a few years ago. I have since been drawing and painting from life over the past few years and now come to a phase where I merge being self taught and all that intuitively comes with that, with the harnessed precision that formal education gives you, even in art.

A community centric human being, I volunteer for many organizations with artistic or yoga contributions. I aim to share culture, community, diversity and the power of art wherever I go. I believe children are the very best students of life and we all have something profound to learn from them. As a kindergarten thru 7th grade private school instructor of Art and Teaching Artist with WholeheARTed Education, I will teach, learn and share everything kids have to offer.
